"ubuntu" in a different font didn't look right to us,
especially not
right next to the logo
referencing the circle of friends. "brainstorm" is part
of the name, not
a tag line, so it 
had to be in the same font for things to not fall apart.

I found it to be very hard to use any other font right next
to the
ubuntu title.

I don't see how it would "dilute" the brand to use given
characteristics
of the brand for 
association.
